りする反応に基づき充放電が繰り返されることになる。A lithium secondary battery is composed of a positive electrode using an active material that reversibly electrochemically reacts with lithium ions, metallic lithium or a negative electrode containing lithium, and a non-aqueous electrolyte. In general, the discharge reaction of a lithium secondary battery proceeds when lithium ions are eluted into a non-aqueous electrolyte at a negative electrode and lithium ions intercalate between layers of an active material at a positive electrode. Conversely, when charging, the reverse reaction proceeds, and lithium ions are deintercalated at the positive electrode. Therefore, in a lithium secondary battery,
Charging and discharging are repeated based on a reaction in which lithium ions supplied from the negative electrode enter and exit the positive electrode active material.

放電容量を持つ材料であることが報告されている。[0005] However, cobalt, which is a raw material of this composite oxide, is scarce in resources and is expensive, has large price fluctuations due to the uneven distribution of commercially available ore deposits in a few countries. Is accompanied by supply anxiety. For this reason, in order to promote the widespread use of lithium secondary batteries, as a positive electrode active material composed of raw materials that are cheaper and more resource-rich than cobalt and that are not inferior in performance compared to lithium-cobalt composite oxide, LiNiO 2
Alternatively, use of LiMn 2 O 4 is being studied. Especially,
Manganese is cheaper than nickel as well as cobalt, and is rich in resources. In addition, manganese dioxide is distributed in large quantities as a material for manganese dry batteries, alkaline manganese dry batteries, and lithium primary batteries, and is a material with little concern from the viewpoint of material supply. For this reason, research on a lithium manganese composite oxide as a positive electrode active material of a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery using manganese as a raw material has been actively conducted in recent years. Above all, it has been reported that a lithium manganese composite oxide having a spinel structure has a potential of 3 V or more with respect to lithium when electrochemically oxidized, and is a material having a theoretical charge / discharge capacity of 148 mAh / g. .

視できるものではない。The problem of deterioration of battery performance at high temperatures is a problem to be especially noted in the case of a large non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery for electric vehicles or load leveling.
This is because as the size of the battery increases, the internal heat generation during use cannot be ignored and the possibility that the inside of the battery becomes relatively high even when the ambient temperature is around room temperature increases. In addition, this problem is not negligible even if a relatively small battery used for a small portable device or the like is used in a high-temperature environment such as a cabin of a car in midsummer.

示した。(Evaluation) A charge / discharge cycle test was performed on the coin batteries manufactured in Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Example 1 under the conditions of an acceleration test at a battery temperature of 60 ° C. At this time, after the battery was charged to 4.2 V at a current density of 0.27 mA / cm 2 , the battery was continuously charged at a constant voltage of 4.2 V until the battery was fully charged (constant current constant voltage discharge). Next, discharge was performed until the discharge voltage reached 3.7V. In this charge / discharge cycle test, the capacity retention rate for each cycle (the ratio of the discharge capacity in each cycle to the discharge capacity in the first cycle) was determined, and the results are shown in FIG.

Can be predicted. In addition, when the content of lithium carbonate is increased, the content of the positive electrode active material is relatively reduced, and the battery capacity is reduced. Therefore, it is understood that the amount of lithium carbonate is preferably set to 20% by weight or less of the positive electrode mixture (dry state).
